    For sure. Being a duck fat and tallow based soap, it doesnt have the most appealing scent until after lathering. You barely need an aftershave that's how moisturising it is and strong the scent is.

    Thanks Joe! The TI gives me a very nice shave, but the edge could be a little smoother. I bought this razor and a Ralph Aust from Maggard's and I am not too keen on their honed edges. I will rehone these razors as soon as their edges start to degrade.

    Thanks Jeff! I agree that Proraso is a fine soap.

    My fingers are too chubby with these small keyboards and I sometimes don't proofread until it's too late and then I go back and fix it even when people have replied to my comments. I guess tapping the right key on the keyboard is so key to any communication via text.

    Thanks Bill for recommending the focus. Works great after you learn it.
    Oh the people at Feather probably just think its a covid thing.
    Thanks again!

    Seaforth!~~Rubberset 400/3~~Barbasol Floating Head/Feather
    Stepped back in time for today's shave. The Seaforth! tends to get airy, when bowl-lathered,
    so the obvious solution is to face-lather. Just what I did.
    Creamy, sumptuous lather. A real joy to whip up and apply.
    The Barbasol was loaded with a "Day 2" Feather blade, so I anticipated it hitting its stride. I was not disappointed.
    My guess is the creators of the "Spiced Lime" were really attempting to steal some of the market share from Old Spice.
    They do not smell similar, except for the lime. The Shulton Lime Old Spice is unmistakably Old Spice.
    It does have a nice "wake up" sting when splashed on.    ​

    Very nice setup Patrick!

    Cool black and white vintage looking image Keith! Nice gear as always!

    Very nice Jim! Everything So Shiny!

    One passer and touch ups, nothing wrong with that! My biggest problem is I just can't quit making lather for 3-4 passes :eatdrink013:.

    Very nice Mark! That is a great looking King Cobra.

    Nice Joe! Enjoy the son's special day!

    More times than not, I do have enough lather for 3, but feel satisfied with the 2.
